Elisabetta Bovina and Carlo Pastore trained at the Istituto Superiore per le Industrie Artistiche in Faenza and founded Elica Studio in 1990. They have not set themselves any disciplinary boundaries: in fact, they have created projects, objects, and actions in the fields of ceramics, jewelry, textiles, fashion and costume, graphics, set design, and performance, and have written and spoken as militant critics of design and applied arts. Noted nationally and internationally for their eclecticism, always high quality, have managed to participate and be invited to exhibitions, commercial and cultural, of great importance, such as the Salone del Mobile in Milan, “Maison et Objet” in Paris, and the official exhibition of the Committee Italy 150 Artisans Tomorrow.
“Subversive, ethical, ecological, political, humorous... that is how I see my job as a designer”
“I enjoy what I do everyday. I never stop thinking about my work and all that relates to it, it’s what keeps me alive.”
“I always think that the project I'm working on will be the best one, where the design and materials are anti-fragile and resilient”
"Fabrice Berrux loves to design and work with pleated-fabric, silkscreen glass and bulbs lamps."
“I’m a person who fishes for ideas. I was born in Ibiza and I’m an industrial dreamer”
